CommonGood Exeter

A groundbreaking new tech company, CommonGood, has officially launched in Exeter, aiming to revolutionise how businesses engage with local charities and community groups. At its core, CommonGood addresses a long-standing challenge in corporate volunteering: connecting businesses that want to give meaningful time, skills, or financial support with grassroots organisations that urgently need specific help. Through a dynamic digital platform, CommonGood is creating a database of community requests—ranging from physical projects like building a sensory garden for a community centre to professional services such as legal advice or marketing strategy. Businesses can browse and “claim” these requests, ensuring that their corporate social responsibility (CSR) days translate into real, targeted impact rather than generic activities that underuse valuable professional expertise.
